Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Empty to be Filled
I learnt this song as a child. I cant find the lyrics either but it goes like this.
The Albaster case

The alabastar case of oil was broken,
And washen the feet of jesus
That sweet perfume was poured
I am like the cask I must be broken
So from my life will flow
A life unto my lord.

Father break me, and take me through the fire oh, father hold me mold me just as you desire, I am just a cup to overflow your will, and I know I must be empty to be filled.

I saw myself as only drifting ,
As lost upon the waters and sinking like a stone
But then your tide washed around me I was lifted
And if I follow the morning star
Ill be sailing home

Repeat chorus.
